"Of course, I won't deny that I gave you a chance at the beginning and even plotted to save you out of selfishness. As for my selfishness, you already understand it."

She never thought that Gong Ming would so openly speak of this matter, so Qian Li was momentarily stunned.

He said, "You are indeed special. Although you don't talk much, every time you speak, you seem to be able to speak bluntly. You always say things that many people don't dare to say. This point is extremely precious to me."

Hearing this, Qian Li felt that she understood a little more.

At the end of the day, the only reason Gong Ming had changed his attitude towards him was because there were no honest people around him.

And she was perfect.

So, in the end, the reason Gong Ming said that she, Qian Li, was his friend, was because he was special and not because he truly wanted to be his friend.

Gong Ming had not finished speaking, but Qian Li had already dispelled this idea from the bottom of her heart.

He had even secretly made the decision that no matter what Gong Ming wanted to do with him, in his heart, Gong Ming would never become his friend.

Firstly, she, Qian Li, did not need this kind of insincere friend.

Secondly, Gong Ming was cunning, although he was saying such words, who knew if he would suddenly go back on his words one day.

"I don't have much to say, and many times I don't know how to express what I'm thinking. In short …" In my heart, Qian Li, you are different from others. "

In my heart, you are different from others.

It was just a simple sentence, but it was like a thunder dropping from the sky, instantly striking Qian Li's heart.

It was dull, painful and with some emotions that Qian Li could not understand.

Just like this, waves of emotions surged in his heart …

This was a very strange feeling, unlike the palpitations when he met Gong Ye in his previous life.

It was also not the kind of trust and comfort he had with Li Mo.

This was a type of feeling that surged forward even though it was depressing.

The person in front of him was looking at him with a serious expression.

That night, he seemed to have said all the things that he had said over the past six months.

Qian Li shifted her gaze, only to realize that the wooden stick that she had bitten on earlier was already burnt, and the bite marks on it had also gradually disappeared along with the fire.

She suddenly understood something.

"I owe it to Master to think highly of me, but I know that Qian Li is just a hooligan within the Chang'an City. To have the chance to be by the side of my prince, and perhaps even have the chance to avenge my benefactor in the future, is already an honour for me. As for the other things, Qian Li will not think about it, and will not dare to do so. "

Gong Ming's eyes dimmed, and said, "So there's actually something that's been said, it's really fake."

Qian Li didn't have time to react for a moment, and directly received a "Mmm". Words.

"As expected, you can't just say what's on your mind. There are some things that are embarrassing after you say it out loud."

Qian Li waved her hand, "Qian Li truly respects Master for being able to live in the palace for such a long time without doing anything."

The words sounded ambiguous, but they both understood what he meant.

"Before, there was a fortune-teller who gave me a death count. He said that I was destined to be alone my entire life. I had no family, no friends, and no family. I didn't believe him before, but now it seems to be true."

"How can Master sigh like this? "You have family. Although you may not be sincere to the three princesses, but the three royal consorts have already married you. You are a family now."

For some reason, Qian Li had the nagging feeling that when she said these words, she was feeling a little flustered.

She frowned and continued, "Master will not be alone. All the people around you, Qian Li, the people in the base, and the people in the Prince's Mansion, we are all willing to serve Master until our deaths."

"Your Highness also has friends. Although Qian Li is not particularly able to see through the relationship between Master and the butler, Qian Li can tell that the butler is really wholeheartedly working for Your Highness."

Gong Ming waved his hand, "As a member of the imperial family, which prince doesn't have a few loyal people? Although I am grateful that everyone is willing to risk their lives for me, there are some things that cannot be said by someone who isn't a friend."

"As for the words of the Uncle Li, I have been watched by him since I was young. Even though he is only the butler of the Duke's Palace, in my heart, he is my most respected elder."

Then, without waiting for Qian Li to answer, Gong Ming continued to explain, "As for the three consorts … This King has never treated them as family. I presume that they are the same as well. "

Today, Gong Ming had truly made Qian Li feel extremely surprised.

Every word he said, every reply he gave, made it difficult for Qian Li to resist.

"Women are very loyal to men. Once they become a man's woman, once they really fall in love, they can even change their original beliefs. There are some women who, in order to protect the man they love, would even betray the man they had always been loyal to."

After saying that, Qian Li's gaze fell on Gong Ming once again. She said, "Love can completely change a person, I don't know if they were previously like you, and each of them had their own master, but after becoming your woman, the greatest man in their heart has already started to lean towards his own husband, so Qian Li believes that if Master treats them better in the future, they … I don't know if I'll be able to become master's family. "

Gong Ming pursed his lips, as if he was thinking about something, and asked a moment later, "Why does it sound like you have experienced it all yourself?"

This rhetorical question caused Qian Li to be slightly stunned. A bitter feeling flashed through her heart, and she said, "Qian Li has indeed never experienced it before. However, the proverb is correct. Even if one has never eaten pork before, one has still seen a pig run, no? "

Gong Ming did not understand. You've seen it before? "

Qian Li nodded, "Weren't the Empress from before just like you? If she wasn't so determined to love that man, how could she not have realized that something had happened to her family? "

At one point, Murong Yan thought that his love would be able to change that man. However, she never thought that in the eyes of the entire world, in the eyes of Gong Ye, Murong Yan's love would be nothing more than a useless sacrifice.

Hearing that, a hint of emotion flashed past Gong Ming's eyes, it was extremely complicated.

And it was the same as every other time.

That gaze came and went fast, and Qian Li was unable to catch a glimpse of it every single time.

It felt like heartache, but it felt impossible.

Between Gong Ming and him, there was really no contact at all.

"The dead have passed away. I don't want to say anything about the past, but …" This King would never treat a woman like this. "He would never do this to his friends."

Qian Li slightly shook her head, "If she doesn't know, then why did the Prince say just now that he doesn't have any relatives? Aren't the three consorts? "

Gong Ming turned his body.

It was still very cold on a spring night.

The forest was even more so.

he said. " This King does not wish to explain anything about this matter for the time being, but perhaps, when you truly regard me as your friend from the bottom of your heart, This King will tell you about this matter. "

Qian Li immediately shifted her gaze. She was actually not that interested in Gong Ming's personal matters.

But being uninterested was only on the surface, in his heart he was still curious about the meaning behind Gong Ming's words.

After thinking for a long time, Qian Li still could not understand what he meant.

"Are we going to spend the night here?" Sorry master, Qian Li's whole body is in great pain right now and she wants to rest. "

Gong Ming naturally would not refuse such a request.

He nodded slightly. "You won't be able to leave even if you look like this. You just need to rest up. We'll leave tomorrow morning."

In the end, he continued, "Although this place is very hidden, it's still their territory. It's hard to guarantee that they will be found after a long time. For safety's sake, we have to leave as soon as possible."

Qian Li nodded and did not speak any further. Instead, she moved her body and found a relatively comfortable position before she closed her eyes.

Sleep, you don't have to think about these annoying things when you're asleep.

Qian Li told herself.
